Finally went from a 478 2.4gig to athalon quad core and 3.0gig with SATA. Boy am I happy, this is awesome. I love the refresh speed, I just blink and its done. Should of done this years ago.

Must be nice. I just rebuilt my 2.4GHz Intel. Since Sony doesn't support their systems what so ever, I took the memory from that dead box (been in closet for two years, wife's old machine) and threw it in mine and doubled capacity. I'm heading into my 7th year with this 'box' and have no problems running modern apps while still being able to run older games occasionally. I just threw out my old 486DX133 last fall lol. I used it to run my laser engraving machine but it was going on 14yrs old.

I've got a quad core on my main comp at home and I'm about to wipe that sucker and run Ubuntu and call it a day. I've had it with Windows.
